Because when your parents ask you what you learned at school, you’ll actually stop to answer. Andover can bring kids closer to their parents, because when you spend more time doing things you’re passionate about, you spend less time worrying about the little technicalities and trip wires of life. When you spend more time talking to your parents about your latest debate in history class, you spend less time fighting about your grades or whose job, if you’re a day student, it is to do the dishes. Maybe you can even employ those debating skills when it comes to the dishes.
